World Title Pressure At Pipeline

The 2013 ASP World Title is coming down to the wire at the Billabong Pipeline Masters, and the stakes were high for Kelly Slater and Mick Fanning in the early rounds of the season finale. With excellent 6-foot surf on offer, things got even more interesting on the second day of competition.

"It seemed like it turned on during my heat and some kind of energy came through for me," said Slater. "I knew I had to make that heat, you cant let those things escape your mind, that was the reality of the situation."

Even though he's out of the world title race, Parko remarked, "I wasn't going to just roll over, you don't really get many chances to win a Pipe Masters and you've got to have a go while you're there."

Looking fit and sharp at Backdoor, Fanning appeared to the man to beat until John John Florence paddled out and upset the power balance.
